OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

THE PERFORMANT LUBE TM WALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated withPERFORMANT LUBE TM, a high-performance lubricant.IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or othersubstances to the walking belt or the walking plat-

form. Such substances will deteriorate the walkingbelt and cause excessive wear.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticatedelectronic equipment, can be seriously damaged bysudden voltage changes in your homes power.Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference canresult from weather conditions or from other appliancesbeing turned on or off. To decrease the possibility ofyour treadmill being damaged, always use a surgesuppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 atthe right).

To purchase a surge suppressor, see your localSEARS or call toll-free 1-800-366-7278 and orderpart number 146148. Use only a single-outlet surgesuppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a transient voltagesurge suppressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor musthave a UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts orless and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for120 volts AC and 15 amps.

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-tion or break down, grounding provides a path of leastresistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec-tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord havingan equipment-grounding conductor and a groundingplug. Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor,and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriate

outlet that is properly installed and grounded inaccordance with all local codes and ordinances.Important: The treadmill is not compatible withGFCI-equipped outlets.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,

and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-trated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter thatlooks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may beused to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-polereceptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properlygrounded outlet is not available.

The temporary adapter should be used only until aproperly grounded outlet (see drawing 1) can be in-stalled by a qualified electrician.

The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extendingfrom the adapter must be connected to a permanentground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in placeby a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet boxcovers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-trician to determine if the outlet box cover isgrounded before using an adapter.

DANGER: Improper connectionof the equipment-grounding conductor canresult in an increased risk of electric shock.Check with a qualified electrician or service-man if you are in doubt as to whether theproduct is properly grounded. Do not modify

the plug provided with the productif it willnot fit the outlet, have a proper outletinstalled by a qualified electrician.

The Time/Incline/Segment Time displaywill show both the time remaining in the programand the time remaining in the current segment ofthe program. One target heart rate setting is pro-grammed for each segment. (The same targetheart rate setting may be programmed for consecu-tive segments.)

When only three seconds remain in the first one-minute segment of the program, a series of toneswill sound and the Time/Incline/Segment Timedisplay and the Speed/Min-Mile display will flash.

The speed and/or incline of the treadmill will thenchange, if needed, to bring your heart rate closer tothe target heart rate setting for the next segment.The program will continue until no time remains inthe program. The walking belt will then slow to astop.

If the speed or incline setting for the current seg-ment is too high or too low, you can adjust the set-

ting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, ifyou decrease the speed, the incline will automati-cally increase; if you increase the speed, the in-cline will decrease. If you increase the incline, thespeed will decrease; if you decrease the incline,the speed will increase. The treadmill will alwaysattempt to keep your heart rate near the targetheart rate setting for the current segment. Note:When the incline reaches the lowest setting, thespeed cannot be increased any further. When theincline reaches the highest setting, the speed can-not be decreased any further.

If your pulse is not detected during the program,the letters PLS will flash in the Calories/FatCalories/Heart Rate display and the speed and in-cline of the treadmill may automatically decreaseuntil your pulse is detected. If this occurs, refer tothe instructions included with the chest pulse sen-sor.

To stop the program at any time, press the Stopbutton. Heart rate programs should not be stoppedtemporarily and then restarted. To use a heart rateprogram again, reselect the program and start it atthe beginning.

Follow your progress with the displays.


When the program is completed, remove thekey from the console.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

The following guidelines will help you to plan your ex-ercise program. For more detailed exercise informa-tion, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen yourcardiovascular system, the key to achieving thedesired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.The proper intensity level can be found by using yourheart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-mended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your agenear the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off tothe nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbersabove your age. The three numbers define your train-ing zone. The lower two numbers are recommendedheart rates for fat burning; the higher number is therecommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.

To measure your heart rate during exercise, use thepulse sensor. If your heart rate is too high or too low,adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill.

Fat Burning

To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relativelylow intensity level for a sustained period of time.During the first few minutes of exercise, your bodyuses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for en-

ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your bodybegin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goalis to burn fat, adjust the speed and incline of the tread-mill until your heart rate is near the lowest number inyour training zone.

For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed and inclineof the treadmill until your heart rate is near the middlenumber in your training zone.

Aerobic Exercise

If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-tem, your exercise must be aerobic. Aerobic exerciseis activity that requires large amounts of oxygen forprolonged periods of time. This increases the demandon the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on thelungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until yourheart rate is near the highest number in your trainingzone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Each workout should include the following three parts:

A Warm-up Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutesof stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up in-creases your body temperature, heart rate and circula-tion in preparation for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise After warming up, increasethe intensity of your exercise until your pulse is in yourtraining zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the first fewweeks of your exercise program, do not keep yourpulse in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.)Breathe regularly and deeply as you exerciseneverhold your breath.

A Cool-down Finish each workout with 5 to 10 min-utes of stretching to cool down. This will increase theflexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-ex-ercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete threeworkouts each week, with at least one day of rest be-tween workouts. After a few months, you may com-plete up to five workouts each week if desired.

The key to success is to make exercise a regular andenjoyable part of your everyday life.

WARNING: Before beginning thisor any exercise program, consult your physi-cian. This is especially important for individu-als over the age of 35 or individuals with pre-existing health problems.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device.Various factors, including your movement,may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings.The sensor is intended only as an exercise aidin determining heart rate trends in general.
